Tot School

~C is 24 Months~

This week we learned about the letter W!

Lots of Water play!

playing with water in the sink

A storm went through the night before and we had many water puddles in our driveway. C got rain boots for her birthday so I thought we would try them out. But she didn't want to jump, just look. We did see a bird taking a bath though :)

We found some worm tracks in our driveway

(ew!) And then we found a worm in the garden!

I painted the palm of her had to look like a watermelon. Then we dipped the end of the paint brush in black paint and C painted the seeds

She also used Water colors to paint a letter W

Other Activities

We made many Mother's Day cards (one for each Grandma and Great Grandma)
Found the idea here.

 painting with some packing peanuts that came in one of her birthday gifts

Fun Stuff

 Got to pet a baby calf at a local May Fest! Also saw baby goats and chicks.

 We went to a different park than we usually go to. She is still too small for most of the equipment, but had fun on this slide!

Handprint Cards

I love hand print crafts. And my toddler loves her to have her hands painted :)
So I take advantage of this to make homemade greeting cards for family members. 

Here are a few from the past few months.

  Hand print birthday cakes

Footprint ghost & palm print pumpkin cards

Hand print turkey cards

 Hand print Santa card

For Easter this year we made cards using the idea I found at Moments of Mommyhood
I put paint on her finger to make the nose and eyes. C made the smiles all by herself.

 And I made 2 of these cards for C's Grandma and Great Grandma who have birthdays next week.
It is incredibly hard to paint a 4 week old's hand :)
